The 2011 Kangaroos men’s soccer team comes into the season with a target on their back. Just the way they like it. After being picked to repeat as regular season champions by the coaches, UMKC will have to overcome some significant losses to make that come to fruition. The ‘Roos graduated starting goalkeeper Ken Cooper, the all-time leader in every goalie category at UMKC, the Summit League Offensive Player of the Year, John Sosa, and the Summit League Defensive Player of the Year, Brian Quintana. On the other side, they get two experienced starters back from injury (sat out entire 2010 season) in seniors Chris Markey and Matt Kopsky. The ‘Roos also return seven starters from a year ago, 16 letterwinners in all. “I think over the last three seasons in particular we have played at a really high level as a team.” Head Coach Rick Benben said, “We really showed last year that we could play at that level on a consistent basis. The good news is we have a good group of experienced players coming back.” The ‘Roos have lofty expectations as always, and the tone that gets set starts with leadership. There are seven seniors and three juniors on the club, and Benben says the younger players learn what it takes from veterans like Markey, Kopsky, Jimmy Simon and Tom Black. “We always have the same goals.” Benben said, “We really want to play well every day, and that will lead to our other goals, win the league, win the conference tournament, and qualify for the NCAA Tournament.” There will be a few changes to the lineup, but Benben feels some of the major keys for success will be at the front and back.

“I have confidence that we will play well, but we have to have good goalkeeping and good goal scoring.” Benben said, “We can play great, and leak easy goals, or we can stop goals and lack finishing without being successful.”

The Forwards The ‘Roos return first-team AllSummit performer Jimmy Simon at the forward position. He led the team with seven goals last season, and the senior will be a big part of the offensive success of the team this year, especially with a 4-4-2 formation. Also coming back is senior Diego Rojas, who played in 17 games up top a year ago, scoring two goals and dishing out an assist. Also in the mix for a major role is freshman Jordan Rideout. He comes to UMKC from the Sporting KC Academy club team. and brings an impressive pedigree to the program as his father, Paul, played in the English Premier League. “I think it all starts with Jimmy. He certainly had a breakout season, and we hope he can continue that form.” Benben said, “Diego provides a lot of experience at that position. We also have high expectations and hopes for Jordan.” A little different this year will be the absence of David Sarabia at forward. He will be making the move to goalkeeper, which was his original position when he was recruited to UMKC. “Sarabia was a big recruit for us, but because of Kenny Cooper’s outstanding play, we were able to use him up front to score some goals in year’s past.” Providing depth to those three will be freshman Michael Hensiek, who played at St. Mary’s HS in St. Louis, Mo.


2011 UMKC KANGAROOS MEN’S SOCCER MEDIA GUIDE The Midfielders The midfield will benefit from having two veterans in the middle, with 2009 Summit League first-teamer Chris Markey and 2010 second-team selection Tom Black expected to garner most of the playing time, but sophomore Zach Balthazar has the ability to play inside and outside. Freshman Julian Musa will also have a chance to contribute in the middle. “It is certainly going to be a different look from the past few years after having Sosa and Perez in the middle.” Benben said, “It is good to have two guys that have started at that position to fill the hole of those guys.” On the outside there is a mixture of newcomers and returnees that will rotate in. Balthazar, as well as senior Luke Harman have both seen time out there, while newcomers Mo Ramahi (junior), Konnor Knoll (freshman) and   Andres Aristizabal (sophomore) will all see time there. Knoll has the ability to play outside back as well. “Outside we are hoping Zach will continue to improve, and Harman has been solid on the left side.” Benben said, “Mo and Konnor are newcomers that bring speed to that wide midfield position. Andres has a chance to be wide as well.” The midfield position has plenty of options, with senior Brandon Nilsson and redshirt freshman Robert Barkoff also battling for playing time.

The Defenders Defender is where the coaching staff has the most options, with plenty of exerienced players and talented newcomers to pick from. “We take the approach that we want to get a shutout, but certainly not more than one goal.” Benben said, “If we do that, we will have a chance to win every game. We try to play a style of game with everyone defending, and everyone attacking.” In the two central spots, the combination of Summit League All-Newcomer team member Jeffrey Stezovsky (sophomore), redshirt freshman Franklin Washington, freshman Michael Oakley, and possibly Markey will play out as the season progresses. “In the middle we think that Oakley, Washington, and Stezovsky will keep us anchored.” Benben said.

There will be competition on the outside as well. Benben feels that Senior Josh Lind and sophomore Tom Stroh will compete at left back, while Konnor Knoll, Jeffrey Stezovsky, and Matt Kopsky will battle for the starting nod on the right side.

The Goalkeepers Junior David Sarabia and sophomore Kevin Corby will battle for the starting nod at goalkeeper. Sarabia has not played there in two seasons but has loads of ability, while Corby transferred to UMKC from Kentucky. Also battling those two will be sophomore Kyle Martin. “I think we are in a good position where we have David and Kevin competing for the starting position.” Benben said, “David is a really athletic goalkeeper, with great quickness and agility. He really knows the game well. Kevin displays athletic ability, and brings size. He is really athletic for a guy with his frame.”

The Schedule The Kangaroos will test themselves outside of Summit League play, starting with the preseason No. 10 team in the nation, defending Missouri Valley champion Creighton on August 31. They face six of the seven teams in the MVC in Bradley, Missouri State, SIU-Edwardsville, Drake, and Central Arkansas. The ‘Roos will also face a Pac-10 opponent (Oregon State), a Big 10 team (Northwestern), and a West Coast Conference member (Gonzaga). UMKC will start conference play on October 1, facing co-league favorite Oakland at home. “Our approach continues to be the same. We prepare for our conference season by playing a challenging nonconference schedule.” Benben said, “We think we have a team that is very capable of playing at that level and it is the best way to prepare.” PAGE

Post season play has been a norm in Benben’s career, as he has guided the ‘Roos to the league tournament in 12-of-his-13 seasons on the sidelines. Benben led the Kangaroos to their fourth regular season conference championship in 2010, posting a 10-5-3 overall record, and a 4-1-1 mark in league play to earn Summit League Coach of the Year for the fourth time.

Perez was also tabbed as an NSCAA all-Region honoree for the third straight year - the only player in school history to accomplish the feat. During the 2008 campaign, Benben guided the ‘Roos to 10 victories, which were the most for the program since 2003. UMKC received national recognition during the season, as the squad posted a 1-0 victory at No. 3 Creighton in September. The win helped the ‘Roos finish the year with a solid 2-1-1 record against ranked foes.

With his success on the field, the Kangaroos were recognized for their achievements. Larry Scheller was named the Mid-Con Player of the Year to go along with honorable mention College Soccer News all-America honors. Scheller still is the only player in school history to receive all-America accolades.

Benben coached two players to NSCAA all-Region Second Team honors in 2008 in Brian Harris and Perez. It was the second straight year that Perez had garnered allregion recognition under Benben’s watch. Harris, meanwhile, earned Summit League praise, when he became UMKC’s first player to garner Offensive Player of the Year honors. Benben then led his squad to The Summit League Tournament title - the third in school history. Benben has claimed three Coach of the Year honors during his 12-year tenure with the most recent accolade coming on the heels of the 2003 campaign. The Kangaroos finished the season with a 10-73 overall record (5-1-0 conference) and an appearance in the NCAA College Cup. The squad captured the first league “double” in school history as they finished atop the regular season table before capturing the conference tournament championship.

Benben became an assistant coach at SIUE after his graduation in 1973, helping to lead the team to another national championship in 1979. In 2008, Benben was recognized by his alma mater for his athletic achievements, as he was selected to the school’s Hall of Fame.

In 1982, Benben joined the professional ranks, as he became assistant coach and director of player personnel for the Kansas City Comets of the Major Indoor Soccer League. He was then named head coach of the Comets in 1984, midway through the 1983-84 season.

During his tenure with the Comets, he missed the playoffs just once, during the 1986-87 season, his final full season with the team. Since 1987, he has been the director of Rick Benben Soccer Camps in Lenexa, Kan., helping to educate young elite-level soccer players during the summer. He received his bachelor’s degree in physical education and health in 1973 and a master’s degree in education administration and supervision in 1976, both from SIUE.

2011 UMKC KANGAROOS MEN’S SOCCER MEDIA GUIDE Larry Scheller - UMKC Hall of Fame Honoree Larry Scheller was an honorable mention College Soccer News all-American, the Mid-Con Player of the Year, a Second Team NSCAA allMidwest Region and First Team all-Mid-Con selection in 2001 after helping the Kangaroos advance to the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Scheller finished his career with 17 goals and 40 points in his two years in Kangaroo Blue and Gold.

Kangaroos In The Pros Former UMKC men’s soccer player Geoff Miles helped the Kansas City Wizards (now Sporting KC) to a 2-1 win over Mexican Primera Division side Atlas AC de Guadalajara on Friday, July 10, 2008 at Community America Ballpark. The former Kangaroo replaced midfielder Lance Watson just before stoppage time, with the Wizards scoring the game-winner in the second minute of added time. Miles, who played for UMKC from 2001-2003, trained with the Wizards throughout the 2008 Major League Soccer campaign. He served as a guest player in the MLS Reserve division, appearing in two matches for the Wizards. He tallied a goal in the league, scoring a game-tying goal in Kansas City’s 2-2 draw against New England on April 10, 2008. Former ‘Roo Bryan Perez (2006-09) spent the 2011 season as a member of Des Moines Menace in the PDL, and has since been invited to trial in the Chilean league with the legendary Club de Deportes Cobreloa.

The Evolution of the Kangaroo

W

hen choosing a mascot, the discussion usually starts with three main categories - predatory animals, historical or regional figures, or humans that represent power and strength - and ends with a collection of the usual suspects. Thanks to Walt Disney, The Kansas City Star and the Kansas City Zoo, UMKC has a very unique mascot, but how exactly does the Kangaroo fit? As it turns out, quite well. In 1936, the issue of a mascot was first brought up by the editors of The University the campus newspaper for Kansas City University. Although there were no organized intercollegiate athletics teams at the time, the newspaper staff felt that KCU’s debate team - and more importantly the school itself - deserved a unique identity. During that same year, the Kansas City Zoo purchased a pair of baby Kangaroos, and The Kansas City Star lit the fire with an article titled “Kangaroo May Go To KCU ... Student Editors Believe University Should Have A Symbol.” Others on campus were not as enthusiastic. The editors of The Crataegus - the University’s yearbook - thought that a Kangaroo was not an appropriate symbol for KCU. A proposed feature page in the 1936-37 yearbook for the Kangaroo emblem was deleted, sparking a tremendous amount of debate. As the debate wore on, interest from the campus community began to wane. It looked as if KCU would not adopt a mascot after all. But in 1937, two events would combine to indelibly link the Kangaroo with the University and give the mascot a name.

The first incarnation of Kasey Kangaroo was inked by Marceline, Mo., native Walt Disney, and featured the KCU mascot alongside a somewhat more famous rodent.

During the student government elections in the spring semester, the CO-OP Party adopted the Kangaroo as its official mascot, naming him Kasey. With a landslide victory in April behind the slogan “Kasey fits KC”, the first part of the foundation was laid. During the same month the first issue of KCU’s humor magazine - The Kangaroo - was published, with a kangaroo gracing the cover. Six months later, a kangaroo made another appearance on the cover of The Kangaroo, and although it wasn’t a solo appearance, it put a quick end to the debate over whether a kangaroo was an appropriate mascot for KCU. Missouri native and famed cartoonist Walt Disney provided the artwork for the cover illustration, which featured Mickey Mouse shaking hands with Kasey Kangaroo. In a matter of a few years, The Kangaroo thrived while The Crataegus floundered, with the latter eventually folding. The Kangaroo became the University’s yearbook and the Kangaroo became the official mascot of Kansas City University. Kasey has undergone several changes over the years, with the most recent metamorphosis led by UMKC Director of Athletics Tim Hall. With the help of local advertising agency Bernstein-Rein, UMKC developed a set of new athletics marks in the spring of 2008. After a community vote, the new Kangaroo logo was unveiled in May. With its aggressive snarl, the new Kangaroo capitalizes on UMKC’s mission to be an outstanding urban university while keeping mindful of the traditions established in 1937.

Director of Athletics Tim Hall

TIM HALL Director of Athletics

Tim Hall was named the UMKC Director of Athletics on Feb. 14, 2007. In this role, he serves as a member of the Chancellor’s executive cabinet, and is responsible for leading the strategic direction in growing the university’s intercollegiate athletics program. In Hall’s first three full years in Kansas City, UMKC has enjoyed a record amount of success on the fields of competition, in the classroom, and in the Kansas City community. These successes were reinforced by the NCAA in 2009, as UMKC Athletics received full NCAA certification without condition. The certification showed that the University is operating its athletics program in substantial conformity with operating principles adopted by the NCAA Division I membership and is valid for the next 10 years. From an athletics standpoint, Hall led the ‘Roos to their most successful year since 2000 in 2008-09 and the ‘Roos continued excelling in 2009-10. UMKC claimed a pair of Summit League titles in men’s soccer and men’s tennis, while also earning the runner-up nod in both men’s and women’s golf, which led to a record 2009 finish in the annual Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup. During the 2010 campaign, the men’s tennis team won The Summit League regular season title and the men’s golf program was the league runner-up. This helped the men’s teams finish fourth in the Dr. William Steinbrecher Men’s All Sports Award standings, the best showing since 2001-02. Overall, the ‘Roos moved up to sixth place in the Commissioner’s Cup standings, which was the highest finish since 2006-07. In the classroom, the department posted a 3.10 cumulative grade point as of the spring 2010 semester and eight programs finished with at least a 3.0 GPA. Additionally, UMKC finished with a 958.7 APR average and the volleyball team received the NCAA public recognition award. Internally, Hall has been hard at work to align the department with peer institutions and the NCAA. He restructured the rules compliance office to be more in line with NCAA rules and the Student-Athlete Support Services Office to better assist and prepare Kangaroo student-athletes. He also continues to work with new UMKC Chancellor Leo Morton to craft the athletics’ strategic plan in concert with the University’s new strategic goals. From a fund raising standpoint, Kangaroo Athletics have never been better. In 2008, UMKC received a $5 million pledge from the Stanley H. Durwood Foundation, the largest gift in Athletics’ and the fourth-largest gift in University history. The resulting Stanley H. Durwood Soccer Stadium and Recreational Field opened in August 2009 and is among the premier soccer facilities in the Midwest region. Additional facility improvements have included revamped locker rooms and lounges for men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball and the retro-fitting of Old Swinney Gymnasium, which provides the basketball and volleyball programs with a first-class practice facility. The project was funded through $500,000 of private support. Hall also was instrumental in the renovation of the Swinney Recreation Center with the installation of new seatback bleachers and new scoreboards, which enhances the venue for the men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball programs. The renovation allows the men’s basketball squad to move its games back on campus full-time for the 2010-11 season. Hall is also in the midst of a partnership with the Kansas City Parks Department to build a sports complex that will house both indoor and outdoor tennis courts, a 200-meter indoor track and a softball field. On an annual basis, the Kangaroo Athletics Scholarship Fund, which was rebranded prior to the 2007-08 school year, has posted three straight years of 50 percent growth, while donor participation is up over 200 percent. He also increased the department’s total sponsorships and gift-in-kind assistance to over $1.5 million and cash and trade sponsorships have increased 265 percent since 2008. Additionally, Hall has increased UMKC’s external support by 45 percent over fiscal year 2009 from $1.6 to $2.4 million. Hall also has also reconnected with over 200 former ‘Roos with the former student-athlete association. In the community, Hall has been active in an effort to get more community leaders involved in the Athletics Department. Hall restructured the Athletics Foundation Board in 2009 by adding representatives from a number of Kansas City-based businesses such as Cerner, Kansas City Southern Railways, Lathrop Gage LLC, and Mark One Electric. New partnerships have come quickly to Kangaroo Athletics, including television (Niles Media Group) and radio (810 WHB) agreements that ensure a continued presence within the Kansas City region. Renowned local advertising firm Bernstein-Rein produced a redesigned athletics logo and graphics set, while additional contractual agreements have also been signed with adidas, Truman Medical Centers, Pepsi, T-Mobile and JumpTV to better serve the department’s student-athletes. Hall continues to bring leadership to UMKC and The Summit League. In addition to his role on the Chancellor’s Executive Cabinet, Hall serves on The Summit League Joint Council leadership committee and sits on the league’s men’s basketball scheduling committee and the men’s and women’s soccer coaches committees. Additionally, Hall is also in the second of a three-year term on the NACDA Division 1-AAA Executive Committee and serves on the NCAA volleyball rules committee. Hall came to Kansas City after serving as the Associate Athletics Director for Development at Kent State University in Kent, Ohio, from 2003-07. While at KSU, he was a member of the athletics senior administrative staff, working in all phases of departmental management including game and personnel contracts, scheduling, budget, policy and strategic planning. In this role, Hall created and implemented a comprehensive restructuring of the athletic advancement unit, resulting in the creation of the Office of Athletic Advancement. He increased fundraising by more than 33 percent, helped secure the largest gift to date in the history of KSU athletics, a $1.53 million gift for the baseball stadium renovation, and raised more than $16.1 million. Prior to moving back to Ohio, Hall worked at Eastern Kentucky University from 2000-03. Hall began work as the collegiate Director for Development in 2000 before being promoted to the Director of Major Gifts and Special Projects in 2001. In this capacity, he raised over $4.6 million for the university, including $1.3 million for athletics. Hall also served as the Assistant Director of Development at Saint Xavier University in Chicago from September 1999 through October 2000. At Saint Xavier, Hall managed fundraising efforts for a $13 million Athletic and Convention Center. He also managed the President’s Club, and developed and implemented the Cougar Club, an athletics affinity group. Before moving to Chicago, Hall worked at Youngstown State University as an Assistant Director of Athletic Development from 1997-99. In this role, he helped the university complete its successful $26 million capital campaign. Hall also began his collegiate career at YSU, serving in the school’s athletic marketing and promotions office. Hall earned his bachelor’s degree in sports administration from the University of Toledo in 1994. He then received his master’s degree in sports administration from Kent State University in 1998. Hall and his wife, Beth, have four children, Aidan, Aislin, Donovan and Landon, and they reside in Kansas City, Mo.


Senior Administrative Staff Carla Wilson Senior Associate Athletics Director for Business and Finance/Senior Woman Administrator

A 13-year veteran of UMKC Athletics, Wilson is responsible for the human resources and business operations of the department, as well as day-to-day operations in the absence of the Director of Athletics. She is responsible for the preparation and supervision of the budgets for each of UMKC’s 16 sports and nine administrative areas and serves as the sports supervisor for men’s and women’s tennis, men’s and women’s track and field & cross country and softball. Wilson is an active member of the National Association of Collegiate Women Athletics Administrators, the College Athletic Business Management Association and the Minority Opportunities Athletic Association. Wilson is a 2009 NACWAA HERS East graduate, as well as a member of the 2009-10 NCAA Fellows Leadership Development Program class. The 18-month NCAA Fellows Program was developed with the specific goal of enhancing the employment and leadership opportunities for racial/ethnic minorities and women at the senior management level of intercollegiate athletics administration. From 2004-2007, she served on the Division I NCAA Men’s and Women’s Tennis Committee. Wilson earned her bachelor’s degree in accounting from UMKC in 1988.

he Kangaroo Athletics ScholarT ship Fund (KASF) supports the student-athletes of UMKC through

the offsetting of expenses such as scholarships, travel, recruiting, and equipment. As costs continue to rise, support for our student-athletes through the KASF becomes more crucial as we continue to build an elite Summit League athletics department. For the 2011-12 academic year, student-athlete scholarship expenses are expected to include: • Tuition (out-of-state): $17,692 • Room and Board: $10,130 • Tuition (in-state): $6,876 • Books and Fees: $1,612 In addition, over the past year it has become extremely difficult for budgets to keep pace with rising travel and food costs. While athletics must be vigilant in cost containment, we must continue to provide for the best possible student-athlete experience. That is where the KASF donors can play such a tremendous role. Donors to the KASF enjoy a number of benefits based on their donor level, including Priority Seating, access to the pre-game Kangaroo Club hospitality parties at men’s basketball games, invitations to a number of events, complimentary media guides and gifts, and exclusive opportunities to meet the student-athletes, staff, coaches, and University leadership.

UMKC Athletic Facilities & Departments Durwood Soccer Stadium and Recreational Field

Durwood Soccer Stadium and Recreational Field will serve as the official home of the Kangaroos and will provide student-athletes, students and community groups with one of the top soccer facilities in The Summit League and the Midwest. The $9 million addition adds to the growing residential feel of the UMKC campus. The gift from the Durwood Foundation and its trustees to construct this stadium is another in their long history of supporting a variety of UMKC initiatives. Durwood will provide seating for 850 fans and a separate addition will host locker rooms, offices and concession areas. Stanley H. Durwood was one of the University’s and the athletic program’s most ardent supporters. His affiliation with UMKC began when NCAA Division I participation was a pipe dream. Durwood also helped establish an endowed scholarship for UMKC student-athletes.

Victor F. Swyden Athletics Training Facility The Victor F. Swyden Athletics Training Facility continues UMKC’s commitment to the total care of each student-athlete. Under the guidance of Head Athletics Trainer Ted Ferris, the UMKC Sports Medicine staff prioritizes prevention, treatment and rehabilitiation in working with Kangaroo student-athletes. Built in 1999, the Swyden Athletics Training Facility honors the memory of former Kansas City councilman and longtime UMKC Athletics supporter Victor F. Swyden, who headed the taskforce that guided the Kangaroos from NAIA to NCAA Division I. A lifetime resident of Kansas City and a graduate of Paseo High School, Swyden was honored in 1993 with the Golden Torch Award, one of the highest honors bestowed by UMKC upon an individual. For the 2009-10 season, the UMKC Athletics Department is teaming up with the UMKC School of Medicine Sports Medicine Fellowship Program, under the direction of Dr. Russell D. White.

UMKC Athletic Facilities & Departments

Swinney Recreation Center The home of UMKC Athletics, Swinney Recreation Center is also one of the finest fitness centers in all of Kansas City. Created through a $14.5 million addition to the old Swinney Gymnasium, the center includes five basketball courts, four racquet ball courts, a 25-meter indoor/outdoor pool and three exercise rooms - two weight rooms and a cardio room. The competition court serves as the home venue for UMKC volleyball in the fall, UMKC women’s basketball and select men’s basketball contests during the winter. It is also the main practice venue for the men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball teams. Kangaroo student-athletes enjoy some of the finest locker room facilities in The Summit League courtesy of a major renovation undertaken prior to the 200708 school year. Along with providing each studentathlete their own individual locker space, the facility also features a player’s lounge that includes leather couches and a big screen television. In addition, the lounge is equipped with a computer workstation with a high-speed internet connection.

Old Swinney Original Old Swinney Gymnasium, affectionately known as “Old Swinney”, which is part of the Swinney Recreation Center received a face lift in the summer of 2010. The renovation transforms the Old Swinney Gymnasium into a modern, collegiate practice facility that will better serve the student body, faculty and staff members and community members, as well as provide outstanding training opportunities for ‘Roo student-athletes. The $500,000 renovation plan calls for new basketball/volleyball court flooring and basketball standards and volleyball nets to be installed in the existing facility. The current skylights in the building will also be altered, which will allow for modified lighting to be put into place. The entire Old Swinney interior will be updated and scoreboards will be installed.

Dutton Brookfield Strength and Conditioning Center The Dutton Brookfield Strength and Conditioning Center at UMKC’s Swinney Recreation Center was officially dedicated on Sept. 22, 2004. Led by Director of Strength, Conditioning and Sports Enhancement Trumain Carroll, the Brookfield Center is designed to help enhance UMKC student-athletes’ levels of performance while significantly reducing the chances for injuries. The benefit of performing structured strength and power training throughout the entire year will give student-athletes the opportunity to reach new levels of physical development. The center contains free weights, plus platforms, benches and machines and the latest cardiovascular equipment. In the summer of 2006, the area purchased the latest Sports Motion system to give student-athletes the video analysis needed to improve their techniques.

THE SUMMIT LEAGUE Celebrating its 30th season in Division I athletics

“Ascending” and “improving” are adjectives frequently used in media coverage of The Summit League as it continues a renaissance on the playing eld and in the classroom. As The Summit League celebrates its 30th anniversary season as an NCAA Division I athletics conference, the level of performance and achievement among the 11 member institutions and over 3,000 student-athletes in 19 championship sports continues to grow. Since 2007, The Summit League has produced 39 All-Americans and 28 Academic All-America selections along with three NCAA Champions, two NBA Draft choices and one Olympic Silver medalist. Headlining The Summit League’s most recent history were the additions of the University of South Dakota and the University of Nebraska Omaha to its membership. USD joined in 2009 and the 2011-12 academic year marks its rst year of full league competition. UNO’s membership took effect on July 1, 2011 and it will begin league competition in 2012-13. The Summit League’s visibility continues to expand on several fronts. The 2011 Baseball Championship drew a record 5,128 fans, topping the previous high by almost 1,500. Another successful Summit League Basketball Championship totaled a combined attendance of over 32,000 which ranked as the second-highest gure in league history while the men’s tournament was one of just six outside the traditional “power conferences” to average 4,400 or better per session. Television exposure also increased with the broadcasts of four Summit League sport championships in 2010-11. For the second consecutive season, all 14 men’s and women’s basketball tournament games were televised live, including the women’s championship on ESPNU and the men’s on ESPN2. Furthermore, The Summit League Outdoor Track and Field Championships were televised for the rst time and the league’s entire Baseball Tournament was carried live, marking another rst. The national reach of The Summit League was furthered when three member institutions hosted 2010-11 NCAA Championship events. IUPUI was a quad-host for the Women’s Basketball Final Four, UMKC co-hosted the Volleyball Championship and Oakland hosted the Great Lakes Cross Country Regional Championship. In 2013, Oakland will host the Men’s Basketball Second and Third Rounds and IUPUI will serve as co-host for a Men’s Basketball Regional. In men’s basketball, The Summit League ranked No. 18 in the Sagarin Ratings, placing four teams among the top 150 and six in the top 200. In the Mid-Major Top 25 poll, league champion Oakland ranked No. 5 with two rst-place votes entering the NCAA Tournament, putting them ahead of two Final Four participants, including the national runner-up. The Summit League set a leaguerecord by playing 16 games against AP nationally-ranked teams, the highest total among mid-majors, including seven top-10 opponents, highlighted by Oakland’s win at then-No. 7 Tennessee. Women’s basketball joined the men in sending multiple teams to the postseason with three teams advancing for the second-straight year, including Oral Roberts, which reached the WNIT’s round of 16 to match the league’s deepest run in that tournament. Summit League teams combined to record four victories over “power six” conference foes during the season.

Individually on the hardwood, Oakland’s Keith Benson was selected in the second round of the 2011 NBA Draft by the Atlanta Hawks and Oral Roberts’ Steven Roundtree was named Mid-Major Freshman of the Year by CollegeInsider.com. On the women’s side, ORU’s Kevi Luper became the rst player in NCAA history to lead the nation in both points per game and steals per game in the same season. Several teams continued impressive championship streaks within the league in 2010-11. Oral Roberts, which nished the season nationally-ranked, won its 14th-straight baseball title, tying for the second-longest streak in NCAA history. Oakland captured its 12thconsecutive men’s and women’s swimming and diving titles while North Dakota State won its fourth-straight men’s and women’s indoor track and eld championships and its third softball crown in a row. South Dakota State became the rst women’s basketball team to win three consecutive league championships. The Summit League enjoyed a successful track and eld season with eight All-Americans, including six at the NCAA Outdoor Championships. Oral Roberts’ Jack Whitt nished as runner-up in the pole vault at the Outdoor Championships after placing third indoors. North Dakota State’s Whitney Carlson became the rst female athlete in league history to earn All-America honors in two events at both the NCAA Indoor and Outdoor Championships during the same year. Two Summit League student-athletes received the prestigious NCAA Elite 88 Award, given to the student-athlete with the highest cumulative grade-point average participating at the nals site for each of the NCAA championships. Amy Anderson (women’s golf) and Carlson (outdoor track and eld), both from North Dakota State, the lone non-FBS public university to have multiple recipients, were presented with the honor and added All-America honors for their athletic performances. Anderson led the league’s individual accomplishments, placing 12th at the NCAA Women’s Golf Championships, the highest nish ever by a Summit League player, and competing as an amateur in the U.S. Women’s Open. IPFW’s Amy Recht claimed her fourth consecutive Women’s Tennis Player of the Year honor and became the rst Summit League athlete to win the sport’s top award in each season of eligibility. Academically, six Summit League student-athletes received Academic All-America honors and six teams were bestowed with the NCAA Public Recognition Award, an honor given to teams that have a Division I Academic Progress Rate (APR) in the top 10 percent of all squads in their respective sports. The accomplishments of 2010-11 came on the heels of the exceptional success the previous two years. In 2009-10, IUPUI’s Chen Ni became The Summit League’s rst female NCAA Champion when she took rst in the platform dive. Oakland’s Keith Benson was named the Lou Henson Award winner as the nation’s Mid-Major Player of the Year. The preceding year, Oral Roberts track star Andretti Bain won a silver medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympics as a member of the

SUMMIT LEAGUE MEMBERSHIP

One of the Summit League’s most iconic moments came when Valparaiso’s Bryce Drew hit “the shot”, a game-winning three-pointer at the buzzer, to top Mississippi in the rst round of the 1998 NCAA Tournament. Valpo’s story captivated the nation as they became the league’s second team to reach the “Sweet 16.” Bahamas’ 4x400-meter relay team after winning both the NCAA Indoor and Outdoor 400meter titles and IUPUI’s George Hill became The Summit League’s second NBA rst round draft pick. Originally formed in 1982 as the Association of Mid-Continent Universities and later known as the Mid-Continent Conference, The Summit League is in its fth year of rebranding that followed its 25th anniversary and coincided with the Summit Plan, a strategic plan that places a renewed emphasis on improving the academic and athletic performances of all league student-athletes. Included in the plan was the league’s new name, the creation of a new image and the addition of three member institutions. The Summit League has a combined enrollment of over 135,000 at 11 universities, ve of which are located in the top 76 U.S. media markets (Detroit, Indianapolis, Kansas City, Tulsa and Omaha). Member institutions include: IPFW (Indiana University-Purdue UniversityFort Wayne), IUPUI (Indiana University-Purdue University-Indianapolis), UMKC (University of Missouri-Kansas City), the University of Nebraska Omaha (which begins league competition in 2012-13), North Dakota State University, Oakland University, Oral Roberts University, the University of South Dakota (in its rst year as a full member), South Dakota State University, Southern Utah University and Western Illinois University. Eastern Illinois University is an associate member in swimming and diving and men’s soccer. These member institutions pride themselves on providing quality athletic, academic and social experiences for their student-athletes. The Summit League sponsors 19 championship sports: baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, men’s and women’s golf, men’s and women’s soccer, softball, men’s and women’s swimming and diving, men’s and women’s indoor track and eld, men’s and women’s outdoor track and eld, men’s and women’s tennis, and volleyball. The league champion receives an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament in all applicable sports. Since its inception in 1982, The Summit League has had several transcendent moments on the national stage. In 1986, Cleveland State upset third-seeded Indiana in the rst round of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament on its way to a berth in the Sweet 16. A decade later, Valparaiso captured the nation’s attention when Bryce Drew hit “the shot” to defeat No. 4 seed Mississippi in an NCAA rst-round game and spark its Sweet 16 run. More recently, Oral Roberts’ baseball program nished the 2004 campaign with a nationalranking and became the rst Summit League school to reach an NCAA Super Regional in 2006. Three years later, North Dakota State’s 2009 softball team became the rst League member to win an NCAA regional and advance to the Super Regional round. During the 2008-09 basketball season, South Dakota State’s women’s team was nationally-ranked throughout the year and capped its season with an NCAA Tournament rst round victory. The League has produced ve NCAA champions, four Olympic athletes and several AllAmericans in the sports of track and eld, swimming and diving and cross country. Numerous professional athletes and several draft choices have come directly from The Summit League, including three Major League Baseball rst round picks, a pair of NBA rst rounders, and one WNBA selection. Former Summit Leaguer Kevin Duckworth (NBA) was a two-time all-star during his professional career. Recent and historical success coupled with an increased growth among its membership base gives The Summit League a promising future on the landscape of college athletics.

Kansas City

Cowtown Shmowtown Although Kansas City’s reputation outside the Midwest may be that of an agricultural cowtown, its residents know the truth. UMKC is in the middle of it all, with history, culture and entertainment options on all sides and within just a short walk or drive. Here’s just a few of the options that students at UMKC have at their disposal.

The Legends at Village West boasts 1.1 million square feet of retail space and is home to more than 100 shops and restaurants.

The Wizards are currently constructing a new $160 million state-of-the-art stadium at Legends.

Located within a short walk from the Volker Campus, The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art includes works of art from some of the great masters. The lawn of The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art resembles a badminton court with 18-ft.-tall sculptures, titled “Shuttlecocks.”

The Country Club Plaza offers 14 blocks of shopping amid beautiful Spanish architecture, fountains and statues. More than 80 miles of lights outline every building, dome and tower on the Country Club Plaza each holiday season. The Plaza is within a short walking distance from the Volker Campus. Kansas City is known as the City of Fountains with more than 200 fountains on the Plaza and in downtown KC.


Kansas City The $850 million Power & Light District is the largest new development project in the Midwest. Just steps from the Convention Center and a short drive from the Volker Campus, the Power & Light District features eight blocks of dining, nightlife and entertainment venues. Located next to the Power & Light District, the Sprint Center opened in downtown Kansas City in October 2007. The Sprint Center is a state-of-the-art, 18,500-seat arena offering marquee concerts and sporting events. Located in the Sprint Center, the College Basketball Experience celebrates college basketball by placing visitors in electrifying, game-like situations. Home to the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame as well, UMKC had the honor of opening the CBE and held its first practice of the 2007-08 season.

Municipal Auditorium has hosted more NCAA Tournament games and more Final Fours than any other venue in the country. The UMKC men’s and women’s basketball teams will also play a doubleheader at this historical venue during the 2010-11 season.

Arrowhead Stadium, home of the Kansas City Chiefs, seats more than 79,000 on game day. The Kansas City Royals play in Kauffman Stadium, which just wrapped up a $250 million renovation. Kauffman Stadium’s unique features include a 322-foot-wide water spectacular. The water spectacular is the largest privately funded fountain in the world. Both teams play at the Truman Sports Complex.

The Negro Leagues Baseball Museum chronicles the history and heroes of the Negro Leagues from their founding after the Civil War to their demise in the 1960s. The first professional Negro Leagues were founded in Kansas City in 1920, just two blocks from the museum.
